Crypto exchange Gemini has launched tokenized Strategy (MSTR) shares for customers in the EU, marking the beginning of its rollout of tokenized U.S. equities on blockchain networks.
The offering, enabled through a partnership with tokenization platform Dinari, allows Gemini users to buy fractional shares of Strategy as on-chain tokens backed by real securities.
MSTR tokens will initially be available on Arbitrum (ARB), with plans to expand to additional networks in the near future, the exchange said in its June 27 announcement.
Gemini said the move aims to democratize access to U.S. stocks by combining traditional equities with the 24/7 liquidity and accessibility of crypto markets.
According to the exchange:
“Anyone in the world with a smartphone and an internet connection can gain access to tokenized U.S. equities like MSTR on the blockchain.”
The firm plans to add more tokenized stocks and ETFs in the coming days, positioning the product as a way to “export U.S. equities across the globe” and enable borderless financial participation.
Gemini emphasized that tokenized stocks grant the same economic rights as the underlying shares, where permitted, while providing benefits such as fractional ownership, reduced transaction friction, and direct on-chain settlement.
Tokenized stocks have emerged as an alternative gateway to U.S. equity markets for global investors facing high currency conversion costs and limited brokerage access.
Gemini said the launch is part of its broader vision to modernize financial rails by merging traditional assets with blockchain infrastructure.
Gemini is one of the first major exchanges to pursue tokenized stock offerings in compliance-focused jurisdictions. The launch comes amid increasing institutional interest in digital asset rails for traditional securities settlement and custody.
